Model G0887 (Mfd. Since 01/19)
-39-
Manual & Automatic
Controls
The Model G0887 has two operation modes:
automatic and manual. Manual mode includes
the controls necessary to prepare a workpiece
for a cutting operation while automatic mode will
complete the cut through a series of pre-estab-
lished settings. Manual mode can be used to
accomplish the same operation as the automatic
mode, but the automatic mode requires less user
intervention and therefore result in less user error.
See the following steps for the controls required
for each to accomplish a typical cutting operation
(see
Figure 42).
Preparing a Cut
Plan your cut before connecting to power, and
determine whether the vise or support vise com-
ponents will need to be moved out of the blade
path (see
Using Vise on Page 42).
To prepare a cut:
1. Connect machine to power and turn both
master power switches
ON.
2. Enter manual mode (
).
3. Turn on hydraulic pump ( ).
4. Set headstock height (see Setting Headstock
Height on Page 40).
5. Set headstock angle (see Setting Headstock
Angle on Page 41).

Performing an Automatic Cut
Automatic mode can only be used to perform a
cut when the preceding manual setup steps have
been performed (see
Preparing a Cut).
To perform an automatic cut:
1. Open coolant valves (see Figure 43).
6. Raise headstock (
) to height set in
Step 4.
7. Open vise (
), place workpiece for cut, then
close vise (
).
8. Proceed to Performing an Automatic Cut.

2. Enter automatic mode (
).
3. Press auto cycle button (
).
— Coolant pump and blade will start. Turn
feed rate dial to adjust feed rate and head-
stock will lower to complete cut.
— When cut is complete, blade will stop,
headstock will raise, and vise will open to
release workpiece.
Note: If pre-established settings are incorrect
for operation, or if a motor has overloaded,
light(s) on failure indicator will illuminate.
User intervention is required before auto-
matic cut can take place (see
Identifying
Failures on Page 40).
